We would like to inform that quartely Scientific Journals of the Maritime University of Szczecin, Zeszyty Naukowe Akademii Morskiej w Szczecinie obtained 8 points in the scientific magazines ranking for 2015 of the Polish Ministry of Science. List of 23 December 2015 (database B, pos. 2105).

It is with great pleasure that I announce the latest, 44th issue of the quarterly Scientific Journals of the Maritime University of Szczecin. In this issue we have published articles related to the naval industry and transport engineering. I am convinced that you will find this issue both informative and enjoyable to read.

The section on marine engineering contains original manuscripts on the analysis of modern vessel propulsion systems, research on single polymer polyester composites, new marine machinery solutions (improved accuracy of heeling angle measurement and steering gear performance) and selected topics within the field of ship design and thermal diagnostics.

The transportation engineering section contains articles on improving the effectiveness and safety during transport, at ports and supply systems. Additionally, this issue also features articles examining the cause and effect analysis of ship fires, new radar systems on the Polish coast, crisis situation management and aspects of quality assessment.

I warmly encourage all the readers to send us their thoughts and opinions on this issue. I also invite researchers to submit papers to be considered for publication by the Journal. In order to access the electronic version of this and previous issues please visit http://scientific-journals.eu/.

With great pleasure we present the 43rd issue of the Scientific Journals of the Maritime University of Szczecin, a quarterly journal, which published original work on maritime-related topics such as improved safety and environmental protection.

The Marine Engineering and Innovation section contains a series of articles about operational safety, minimization of energy consumption and modern control systems. The section entitled Navigation and Maritime Transport focuses on maritime SAR missions, collision avoidance and navigational safety improvements for maritime traffic. The Transportation Engineering section contains articles on ship operations in extreme conditions such as among ice floes, close to offshore wind farms and in pirate-infested waters.

Readers who wish to send us any comments and suggestions concerning the development of our journal are welcome to do so any time. Authors are invited to submit original studies on a broad range of maritime-related topics. To access the electronic version of the current and back issues please visit the journals website available at http://scientific-journals.eu/.

Our Journal granted patronage for the Szczecin workshops during the II Design Thinking Week, which will take place in at least of 10 biggest Polish cities between 02 and 08 November 2015.

The event in Poland is organised by the Top 500 Innovators Association and is sponsored by the Ministry of Science and Higher Education, the National Centre for Research and Development, the U.S. Mission to Poland and when it comes to the Szczecin workshops - PGE Górnictwo i Energetyka Konwencjonalna S.A.

The idea behind the event is popularisation and promotion of design thinking as a creative and systematic approach to problem solving by communities, towns and cities, non-governmental organisations or business. The approach is successfully used in the USA, Germany or Finland or by companies like Apple, Boeing or Shimano.

With great pleasure we present the 42nd issue of the Scientific Journals of the Maritime University of Szczecin which publishes original work on maritime-related topics.

The section entitled Marine Engineering and Innovation contains a series of articles dealing with deformation of engine components, improvement of flow efficiency and the reliability of buffered systems as well as power transmission and energy effectiveness. The section entitled Navigation and Maritime Transport focuses on nautical traffic models and contains case studies from the ports of Rotterdam, Szczecin – Świnoujście and Shenzen. Additionally, the issue contains papers on ship operational safety, expectations of human resources from an industry perspective, human and social factors affecting safety, and the operational running of the Archives of the Maritime University of Szczecin.

Readers who wish to send us any comments and suggestions concerning the development of the journal are welcome to do so at any time. Authors are invited to submit original studies on a broad range of maritime-related topics.

As a result of cooperation between the Maritime University of Szczecin andPGE Górnictwo i Energetyka Konwencjonalna S.A. in terms of research and technology development and on the basis of the sponsorship agreement of 6 May 2015, theScientific Journalshas obtained sponsorship from this company to be used for further development of the magazine.About the sponsor...

Welcome to issue 41 of the Scientific Journals of the Maritime University of Szczecin. The scope of our quarterly is concentrated around sea-related aspects.

In this issue there are four papers devoted to an overview of solutions in terms of renewable energy, including sea wind farms, tidal and wave energy conversion, and three papers on ship propulsion systems modelling. You cannot miss a very interesting article in the area of marine traffic engineering which describes the port basin as a waterway system component. What is more, there are a few papers on selected aspects of tribology, marine traffic safety, cartography and seamen manning agency operation.

As for readers - please do not hesitate to send us any comments and suggestions concerning the development of our magazine. All authors, on the other hand, are welcome to send their manuscripts. To access the electronic version of the current and back issues, I encourage all the interested to visit the website available at http://journals.am.szczecin.pl.
